Multiple partitions shown on FreeBSD when disk is formatted NTFS in Windows
A new 4TB USB disk was prepared for FreeBSD and formatted as NTFS using Windows 10.
The previous disk when connected was shown as /dev/da1s1
However the new device had to be mounted as /dev/da1p2
Trying to mount with
ntfs-3g /dev/da1p2s1 /mnt/usb
threw the error
The device '/dev/da1p2s1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Why the difference?
Looking at gpart show /dev/da1 it indicates
=> 34 7814037100 da1 GPT (3.6T)
34 262144 1 !e3c9e316-0b5c-4db8-817d-f92df00215ae (128M)
262178 2014 - free - (1.0M)
264192 7813771264 2 !ebd0a0a2-b9e5-4433-87c0-68b6b72699c7 (3.6T)
7814035456 1678 - free - (839K)
Note if you want to exclude directories, they are relative to the source folder, and the presence or absence of slashes is important.

The first partition is a 128M Microsoft Reserved Partition.
The usable data exists in partition 2.
To mount the drive for copying data use:
mkdir /mnt/usb
kldload fuse
ntfs-3g /dev/da1p2 /mnt/usb
rsync -av --ignore-errors --exclude .recycle /mnt/Data /mnt/usb
kldload fuse
ntfs-3g /dev/da1p2 /mnt/usb
rsync -av --ignore-errors --exclude .recycle /mnt/Data /mnt/usb

rsync -av --ignore-errors --exclude 'Andrew/Bulgaria' /mnt/Data /mnt/usb
